The Chinese historical scenes were presented by the students of Fairlea Girls School under the Mrs. Cheung Wing-kui. The direction of the Head Mistress, execution was admirable, and the costumes worn gave a very vivid effect.

Mr. John Braga, accompanied by Miss Braga at the pluno, gave a pleasing selection or violin solos. which came in for a great deal of applause.
Miss Evelyn Gray and her friends were seen in a number of humerous sketches, which were cleverly carried out and thoroughly appreciated. Mae Beatrice Bichino as Professor Glockenspiel, and Mes Gray as Maggle, caused much amusement.
